- New Year, New Name - Glitch Hunt - 14 January 2026
Happy New Year, crew members!We are excited to announce that the game is now Glitch Hunt. The teams spent a lot of time over the last few months deliberating about the identity of the game. It felt like Sinus didn't represent how we felt about the game properly, so we made the decision to rename. We hope you like it!We have been working really hard in the background on amazing new content - such as new locations, enemies, turrets and balancing! We'll be doing some playtesting in the coming months so please keep an eye out for that in the Discord channel. Your feedback will be much appreciated when the time comes!We're also proud to announce, that we've teamed up with Kando Factory to co-publish the game. This will take some pressure off our team, so we can concentrate on polishing all the content for Glitch Hunt. So if you see some replies and posts from Kando, that's why! Thank you so…
- DEMO 1.6 UPDATE - 22 March 2025
Hello, crew members! It's update time for our demo! This update focuses on balancing, ease of use, and design improvements. https://i.postimg.cc/GmM808mN/10-ezgif-com-optimize.gif 1. Virtualize Stamina We’ve redesigned how turrets are used. "Virtualize Time" has been replaced with Virtualize Stamina, a new system and UI that surrounds turrets instead of being displayed on the control panel screen. Key changes: - Players can now take damage while controlling turrets instead of being teleported back after one hit - Damage is subtracted from Virtualize Stamina rather than instantly ejecting the player - This allows for more turret use and reduces unwanted teleportation across the screen - More UI elements to improve awareness https://i.postimg.cc/vmk4BJ9t/11-ezgif-com-optimize.gif 2. Improved Agent Movement We’ve adjusted how agents position themselves in battle, making hacking and melee a…
- DEMO 1.5 UPDATE - 10 December 2024
Greetings, crew members! It’s update time for our demo, and boy is this a big one. We’ve been working hard on adding new and interesting features that actually change how you play and make every run different. The previous update was the first step in this direction, making every character unique. Here is what the new update brings: 1. PASSIVE ITEMS THAT MATTER We added new mechanics so every passive item can add some kind of meaningful upgrade that can change how you play and approach enemies. These items can also affect your agents and their bullets. Here’s the full list of items you can find in the demo: Vigor Bifocals - See enemy health and level. Observers ST - See nemy state and target. X-Ray Googles - Reveal nearby secrets. Disk-LSR Visor - See invisible enemies. Assassin Shades - See enemy elemental weakness. Heat-R Mask - Burning enemies emit fire sparks, that burn enemies in c…
